ETHICAL PRACTICE ON INNOVATION IN THE EDUCATION MARKET
Journal Title: Educational Research International - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the paths by which the ethical gamesmanship played in the junior high school education market in the greater Taipei area influences innovation in school education. This study defined ethical gamesmanship in education as the behavior displayed by schools in dealing with pressure from competitors’ confrontation and satisfying the demands of parents without compromising ethical principles. Revealing these paths of influence involved the administration of a questionnaire survey to junior high schools in the greater Taipei area. A total of 1,190 questionnaires were distributed through two stages of sampling; 917 valid questionnaires were recovered (77 %). Structural equation modeling and the analysis of the survey results led to the following findings: (1) Schools should strengthen the integration and application of ethical principles in educational strategies; (2) School leaders should give heed to vulnerable leadership and a decline in professionalism to prevent inhibitory mechanisms from merging; and (3) School leaders should encourage flexibility. The government should intervene only when necessary, in order to maximize innovation in education under any circumstances.
